Talk to me about YNAB

I've just downloaded the free trial. Put all my accounts in, credit card debt, pay pal account, etc etc


I've added all my future salary/bills for end of July/August - which I hope I've done right!


Can't get it to sync with my iphone, folowed the drop box instructions but wonder if it's because I've downloaded the classic version?


Can I delete any of the catergoies e.g student loan (I don't have one) gaming? don't do gaming?


Does it take a few months to see a true picture of your budget and planning?


Any other tips or suggestions?

  • Hi There
    if you click on the name heading one highlighted in pale blue then you can do one 3 things rename, edit or delete.
    as for dropbox i have an iphone only setting i can see if go to settings and scroll down to ynab press right >on the screen and make sure all settings are on especially using mobile data or else it will only work when connected to WI-FI.The only other issue may be the firewall on your pc but that is out of my knowledge base
    i hope that helps

    Have you got the internet based trial? If so I belive it is the other app you need

    Yes you can delete and add categories as you like or rename! Just click on the name and a box pops up to rename or delete.
